List reports display data in the form of an expandable list.
You can configure whether lists appear expanded or collapsed. Lists are often used for
enumerations such as the number of incidents or changes. They contain columns that show more
detailed information, such as a short description, category, or state.  
Note:  
* This topic refers to Reporting in the Core UI. If your instance is migrated to Platform Analytics experience, see [Create a simple list visualization in the Visualization Designer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/c8Krx6zXNI4sD189wi9cAA "List reports display data in the form of an expandable list. For example, an incident report grouped by priority displays only the priority names and a number of records that display if the user selects the priority. You can configure whether lists display expanded or collapsed.").
* List reports display in List v2, even if List v3 is enabled.
* The record count and pagination buttons appear only at the bottom of the list.

## Types of list reports {#list-reports__section_sdp_4fr_cmb}

There are three types of list reports.

[Basic list reports](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Tq7rnkoz3DWHML87mXSMkQ "List reports display data in the form of an expandable list. For example, an incident report grouped by priority displays only the priority names and a number of records that display if the user clicks the priority. You can configure whether lists display expanded or collapsed.")
:   List reports with no additional features

[List reports with variable columns](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/p9KTaA6zk~Pqsp6HmpL_kQ "You can create a list report with variables columns based on a data source or table that has variables associated with it. For example, if an item has a variable called Storage, you can create a list report that has a column for the values in this variable.")
:   List reports based on a data source or table that has variables associated with it, for example, Service Catalog data sources. Variables are often variations in products such as amounts of storage in a computer.

[List reports with question columns](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Z9pW9Wt4EdUOHQCwdAbqdw "You can create a list report with question columns based on a data source or table that has questions associated with it. For example, if a form prompts a user to select the specific nature of a problem, you can create a list report that lists columns for those values.")
:   List reports based on a data source or table that has questions associated with it. For example, if a form prompts a user to select the specific nature of a problem, you can create a list report with columns for their
    responses.

Basic list reports can use a table, a data source, an imported Excel spreadsheet, or a MetricBase table for their report sources. List reports with variable and question columns use only tables and data sources.

There are extra steps to configure the question and variable columns.
